Abstract/Contents: | Discusses composting efforts in Wisconsin. States that "the Bruce Company of Middleton [Wisconsin]...takes yard trimmings from nine southcentral [Wisconsin] communities 'turning them into new lawns that grow faster and require fewer chemcial treatments than typical turf.'" Also states that "since 2003, the three composting sites operated by Bruce receive 15,000 to 20,000 cu [cubic] yards each - paid for by the municipalities." Profiles the composting process, stating that "it takes from four to eight months to produce compost, which is used in the firm's landscaping business." Also states that the company "accepts wood scrap from construction projects at no cost." Mentions that the Miller Brewing Company in Milwaukee, Wisconsin "is working...to find beneficial reuses for by-products such as spent brewer's grain and spent brewer's yeast which the company would like to recycle along with aged beer to produce energy-generating biogas." |
